Welcome to where I spiral into everything from the myth of the New Year’s kiss to the crushing loneliness capitalism thrives on. Society's a joke, and I’m here to dissect it—ranting about isolation, relationships, government failures, and why everything is low-key (or high-key) trash. It's chaotic, it's raw, it’s me. No advice, just vibes. Happy 2025, I guess.
Topics Covered: New Year’s loneliness and the pressure of the midnight kiss, Personal reflection on isolation and introversion, Society’s role in perpetuating loneliness, Capitalism, social media, and the commodification of connection, Critique of the American Dream and the reality of oligarchies, Processing emotional pain and embracing solitude, Cultural expectations and rejection of self-improvement propaganda, Personifying loneliness as a way to cope, Nihilistic humor about life’s meaningless chaos, Quick tangent on licorice, Twizzlers, and black aesthetics, Philosophical musings on loneliness, death, and self-awareness
